Self Storage BudgetsConstruction Budget

This tool is a sample construction budget that is designed to give the user an idea of the general categories and line items found in a typical self storage construction budget. This is an EXAMPLE ONLY, and is not intended to be a comprehensive list of possible construction budget items, as the exact construction budget items will vary depending on the exact site parameters, proposed site work and building design and requirements, governmental jurisdictions requirements, etc. This tool may be useful as a baseline from which you may add certain items or subtract others to fit your exact situation. The user should consult qualified engineers, architects, governmental jurisdictions, general contractors and/or other self storage professionals to cover all the bases. As always, you may contact NDS Construction for further assistance. NDS Construction is an affiliate of the The Parham Group, your One Resource for self storage development, construction, management and consulting.
